The Loud Mouth

The way the loud mouth David Cameron castigated Pakistan and that too on the Indian soil in public, a statesman would not do so even behind the closed doors in the country being targeted by him.  But, of course that applies only to a statesman! Obviously his utterances which were to cajole the Indians with an eye on the billion pound future business prospects, especially sale of the fighter aircraft to the IAF,  have been very rightly condemned by all segments of  Pakistani society. People expected Zardari to cancel his forthcoming official visit to UK in protest but I suppose it is too late at this stage as all preparations for the visit involving millions have already been made. However, the least Mr. Zardari can do now is to convey the true feelings of every Pakistani in unambiguous words to the Brit in his meeting with him. The immature Cameron must be told clearly to observe the diplomatic norms during his future utt erances at home and abroad or else it could provoke some very unpleasant repercussions for the UK. Enough is enough.
